Is an Interesting story regarding the rite
of this discussion and the birth of the two

the man who worked up the charter list.
A little while before a charter was given to
Nebraska City lodge No. 1. A struggle en
Bucd to see which would Institute first
Jones succeeded In obtaining the necessary
five chaitcr members first , but before the
Institution could bo hold ono of these died ,
lleforo his successor could be gained the
Nebraska City lodge got Its five charter
members and Instituted first. Ncbrabka City
lodge No. 1 remained In existence until July
1SCO , when It was consolidated with Fron
tier lodge No. 3 of Nebraska City , which la
still living and prospering.
Thus a short time after the Institution ol
